This is a tough job for our friend the burn box especially if we run 14:1 DCS to NH3 ratio where a large amount of gas goes unreacted. In normal operation just a slight amount of excess gas enters the burn box which runs at 850 degrees C and it is burned. This by-product is then washed down with a spray of water to acid waste. What has happened recently is that too much gas is entering the burn box andthe by-product mostly silicon dioxide and maybe some ammonium chloride and throw in a bit of oil mist from the pumps is building up so fast we are forced to tear the burn box nearly every day or the back pressure becomes too high. Which brings us to point B. We have reserved a short window of time every day between 6:00am and 8:00am. This allows us to cool the burn box and clean it. We would really appreciate it if users could be finished or at least in cool down by 6:00 am. Last point, Next week we will have 4 days of Holiday. Users need to be aware of burn box pressure and not run if pressure is above 3" H2O. Thanks for your help in advance.ted From Spotworthy at aol.com Thu Nov 21 11:05:09 2002 From: Spotworthy at aol.com (Spotworthy at aol.com) Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2002 14:05:09 -0500 Subject: Reservation removed 2-6pm 11/21/02 Message-ID: <4AD970EE.16B0C677.0CEC25E7@aol.com> I have removed my reservation for the tylanpoly tube from 2 to 6 pm today.
